Title | Aggregate Timer and Lock |
Description | Automatic timer and locking device for controlling the operations of the mixers. The 4-yard mixers cannot discharge a batch of concrete until they have run the required time (usually 2 minutes) as set on the timer for each mixer. Should the operator attempt to dump the mixer before the prescribed time has elapsed, he would find that the controls have been automatically locked. |
